2. The captions on your ex's new Facebook photo album, "MIKE LOVES CINDY." Did you really need to know that her pet name for him is CutieButt? Does that make you feel better?

3. The essay that's due in your first class tomorrow, which you wrote in five Coke Zero-fueled minutes. "Russia is a very big state in the top half of the map where the people live in palaces made of ice and wear fur hats" is not the stuff of A+ grades. Especially considering the paper's supposed to be on The Scarlet Letter.

5. Our fan fiction masterpiece, "Neville Gone Wild."

6. The diary you wrote during "the Year of Jeremy," also known as last year, also known as the year of a thousand terrible napkin poems and weepy diary entries. ("Dear Diary, JEREMY WILL NEVER LOOOVE MEEE. Sincerely, Mrs. Jeremy")

7. For the thousandth time, the "casual" text you sent your crush, which took you three hours to write and which he never responded to. Unless he's responded by now, CHECK ONE MORE TIME MAYBE YOU JUST DIDN'T HEAR IT BEEP
